''Ring the bell and the door will open.n is
the remark made by small label over a
bell-handle in Third avenue, near Eighteenth
street, where Nine. La Foy reads the past,
present and future at so much per read
Loye, marriage, divorce, business specula-
ton and business are there handled with the
utmost impunity by mime. La Foy, the
famous scientific astrologist," who has
monkeyed with the planets for twenty years,
and if she wanted any information has ''read
it in the stars" ...
l rang the bell the other day to see if the
door would open. 1t did so after considerable
delay, and a pinply boy in knee pants
showed me upstairs into the waiting room.
After awhile was removed to the consulta-
tion-room, where Nine La Foy, seated be-
hind small oilcloth-covered table, rakes
up old personalities and prizes into the future
at cut rates.
Skirmishing about among the planets for
twenty years involves greal deal of fatigue
and exposure, to say nothing of the night
work, and SO Nine. La Foy has the air of
one who has put in very busy life. She is
as familiar with planets though as you or |
might be with our own family, and calls
them by their first names. She would know
Jupiter Venus, Saturn, AdoniS or any of
the other fixed stars the darkest night that
ever blew.
t'Mme. La Foy De Graw," said I, bowling
with the easy grace OF gentleman Of the
old school, would you mind peering into
the future for me about half dollars
worth, not necessarily for publication, ct
cetera."
Certainly not. What would you like to
known
''Why, want to know all 1 can for the
! T
course do not wish to know what already
know 1t is what do not know that | de-
sire to know. Tell me what l do not know,
madame. l will detain you but moment"
She gave me back my large, round half
dollar and told me that she was already
weary She asked me to excuse her. She
was willing to unveil the future to me in
her poor, weak way, but she could not
guarantee to let large food of light into
the darkened basement of benighted mind
for half dollar.
s'You can tell me what year and on what
day of what month you were born" said
Nine La Foy, "and will outline your life
to you generally require a lock of the
hair, but in your case we will dispense with
it,
told her when | was born and the cir
cumstances as well as l could recall them.
This brings you under Venus, Mercury
and Mars. These three planets were in con-
junction at the time of your birth. You
were born when the sign was wrong and
YOU have had more or less trouble ever
since Had you been born when the sign
was in the head OF the heart, instead of the
feet, you would not have spread out over
the ground so much.
''Your health is very good, as is the
health of those generally who are born I'M
der the same auspices that you were. Peo-
pie who are born under the reign of the crab
are apt to be cancerous. You, however,
have great lung power and wonderful gas
trio possibilities. Yet at times you would
be easily upset. A strong cyclone that
would unroof court house or tip over
through train would also upset you, in spite
of your broad, firm feet if the wind got be-
hind one of your ears.
'You will be married early and you will
be very happy, though your wife will not
enjoy herself very much. Your wife will
be much happier during her second mar
riage
tiers without forming any partnerships Do
not go into partnership with small, dark
man who has neuralgia and fine yacht.
He has abundant means, but he will go
through you like an electric shock.
Tuesdays and Saturdays will be your
most fortunate days on which to borrow
money of men with light hair. Mondays
and Thursdays will be your best days for
approaching dark men.
Look out for a low-sot man accompanied
by an Office cat, both of whom are engaged
in the newspaper business. He is crafty and
bald-headed on his fathers side. He prints
the only paper that contains the full text of
his speeches at testimonials and dinners
given to other people. Do not loan him
money on any account.
You would succeed well as musician
or an inventor, but you would not do well
as poet. You have all the keen sensibility
and strong passion of poet, but you haven't
the hair. Do not try poesy.
in the future see you very prosperous.
You are on the lecture platform speaking.
Large crowds of people are jostling each
other at the box-office and trying to get
their money back.
''Then see you riding behind flexible
horse that must have cost large sum of
money. You are smoking cigar that has
never been in use before Then Venus
bisects the orbit of Mars and see you going
home with your head tied up in the lap
robe, you and your spirited horse in the
same ambulance" .'-..t...
"But do you see anything for me in the
future, Nine. LaFoyer" | asked, taking
my feet off the table, the better to watch
her features; anything that would seem to
indicate political preferment, a reward for
past services to my country, as it were"
mo, not clearly But wait moment.
Your horoscope begins to get little more
intelligent. / see you at the door of the
Senate chamber. You are counting over
your money and looking sadly ct a schedule
OF prices. Then you turn sorrowfully away
and decide to buy seat in the House in
stead. Many years after | see you in the
Senate. You ue there day after day at
tending to your duties. You are there
early, before any one else, and | see you
pacing back and forth, up and down the
aisles, sweeping out the Senate chamber
and busting off the seats and rejuvenating
the cuspidors"
Does this horoscope which you are using
this season give you any idea as TO whether
money matters will be scarce with me next
week or otherwise, and If so what had
better do about it.
Towards the last of the week you will
experience. considerable monetary prostra
tion, but just as you have become despond-
emit, at the very tail end OF the week, the
horizon will clear up and slight, dark
gentleman, with wide trousers, who is
total stranger to you, win loan you quite
